And the next trip will be to….!

14 Oct And the next trip will be to….!

Now that we are living in San Francisco you might have noticed that we have turned into little travel addicts! My last trip was to New York 3 weeks ago and this weekend we are going on another one..! A road trip to be exact and we expect that there will be a lot of wine and food involved. We have been planning this trip for a long – long – time because when we first arrived in California 6 months ago, we heart that this place is magical!

Mendocino!

On Saturday morning we will start the car and drive 3 hours up the Californian coast to Mendocino! This little beach town is known for it’s natural beauty and wine country. We will be staying at the oldest hotel of this picturesque town. It is called the Inn at Schoolhouse Creek & SPA where we will experience the impressive coast firsthand! I expect this to be the perfect place to relax and unwind with my hubby as we will be lounging by the fire with an incredible view over the ocean, going for a hike to explore the secluded beaches and enjoying a lot of food and wines. Of course I am not only thinking about the wine, romantic walks on the beach and the relaxation at the fire place, but I also thought about the perfect outfit to wear and bag to carry when we go to Mendocino this weekend…

The perfect travel outfit!

For me, TOMS are the perfect shoes to wear when I go on a new adventure. They offer lightweight comfort and have a rubber outsole that provide for a no-slip grip. I also often choose denim trousers and a casual shirt. I really love this green shirt as it is made from velvet, a super soft and fun material. This trend is big this Fall/Winter season and a little addictive I must admit! And what do you think of my new Abercrombie & Fitch jeans, with the fun plaid details? And of course I always make sure that I bring the right pair of sunglasses and that my nails are done (what do you think of this fun colour of Meeki)?

Mi-Pac Luggage

This colourful piece of Mi-Pac luggage is absolute great for when you are dealing with wanderlust. It is a lightweight bag and combines both fashion and function. Remember the flower trend for this Fall/Winter (click here for the full article)? With the sweet orchids in combination with the navy blue, this bag comes close to perfect when you want to carry (out) this trend. This bag is also really strong as it has been made from a tough and durable coated, woven construction. Besides the handles, it also features a detachable padded shoulder strap to make it extra functional and versatile. And one of its best features is the fact that it is water resistant and fully lined.

Thank you Erica; road trips are indeed the best!! And Mendocino is one of my favourite destinations!! Xx Susanne

Welcome to CA! How fun that you are going to Mendocino and what a perfect little getaway. Sounds so quaint and romantic and super relaxing. I love this forest green color and the way the buttons are placed. The floral TOMs are too cute and go well with your weekend bag. Have the best trip ever and can’t wait to see all the pics! xoxo, Christinehttp://dailykongfidence.com/
